Athletics West – State Events

Register for Athletic West Events via website Events Calendar page https://www.athleticswest.com.au/events/list/
There is an overlap between the two State Championship events – the WA State Championships and WA State Junior Championships. Athletes who are born in 2013 can compete in either, or both, as per the Aths West entry criteria.
Important Points to Remember
- At most State Events, UWALAC has a tent located on the Northern end of the stadium. This area is for athletes and parents to relax and meet up with other athletes. We have sunscreen, ice and basic first aid on hand.
- There is marshalling before each event 20 minutes for track and 35 minutes for field
- Announcers will not be calling athletes to marshal, so you need to keep notice of the time make sure you get the call room on time
- If events are running behind time, an announcement will be made
- If athletes from your event have left the Call room to complete, you have deemed to have missed the event
- If you have an event clash-see a clash officer so they can marshall for you and alert the call room for you
- Athletes are under the control of their parents for the State Championship weekends
- Coaches will be around some of the time, but it is up to you to get to marshalling on time
- Leave enough time to park when returning and come back at least one hour before your scheduled event
- Keep your mobile phones on in case a race has to be re-run
